ChumuNote, Tenshi El, Yuime Yui, and Kujo Ringo appeared in a roughly 30-minute live session with 50 attendees.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe setup used Mawari\u0026#39;s ARAWA platform, but with a change from the March event. Instead of cloud rendering streamed through millimeter wave, the 3D avatar and background data was downloaded to each phone and rendered on-device. As VTubers joined mid-show and the stage changed, the phones kept downloading and drawing new data.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMillimeter wave offers wider bandwidth than existing frequency bands, which keeps connections fast even when many users hit the same line at once. The event also included a side-by-side download test where a millimeter wave-connected device finished downloading a full drama series before a non-connected device that started earlier.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"Mawari and KDDI ran a 3D VTuber talk live on the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 with four VTubers and 50 attendees.
